The model of non-ballistic jet motion proposed in 2008 provides a simple explanation to the inward jet motion and bent jet. Recently, evidences of such a non-radial motion increase rapidly, and more complicated morphologies appear. On the…

The giant jets represent a fundamental trace of the historical evolution of the outflow activity over timescales which are comparable to the accretion time of the outflow sources in their main protostellar phase. The study of such huge jets…
